Advancement of iOS cameras over the years has led to iPhones and iPads having multiple camera hardware units. Starting with iPhone 7 Plus, the dual-cameras and with iPhone 11 Pro, triple-cameras were introduced. Also, with iPhone X, TrueDepth camera became the standard for selfie depth photos.
Each of these cameras has different capabilities and, sometimes, becomes a part of a fusion camera that is made up of two or more cameras.
